My Review:
After I posted my review of the first Ivan book, one of my friends told me that she had three others! She kindly let me borrow them, and I have enjoyed reading them.
This book is very interesting! It deals with how to act when you are persecuted because you are a Christian, and I also found the plot line about the hidden Bible to be cool. While I don’t really appreciate the part where the children were sneaking around at night looking for the Bible, I understand why they were doing it.
This was an interesting book, and I would recommend this series both to children who want an adventure story as well as to those who want to learn more about history in the Soviet Union!
